Andrew Maguire whistleblower - The Biggest Silver Market Manipulation Story Disclosed

THE LARGEST FRAUD IN THE HISTORY OF THE WORLD 5 TRILLION DOLLARS STOLEN IN THE GOLD MARKET!!!!!!
Andrew Maguire (Whistleblower) exposes Comex silver manipulation.

Bill Murphy, Chairman of the Gold Anti-Trust Action Committee delivers his testimony about gold price suppression to the Commodity Futures Trading Commission on 3/25/10.

For any long term purchaser of silver, there is no agency more important than the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, or the CFTC. The CFTC is charged with ensuring that the futures markets are trading fairly at all times and investigating manipulative trades and fraud within the trading system. Now more than ever, the CFTC is critically important in investigating banks like JP Morgan and their roles in manipulating market orders.



Whistle Blowing on Futures Manipulation



At the center of the investigation into manipulation is Andrew Maguire, who in November 2009 contacted the CFTC to expose front-line JP Morgan traders for market manipulation. Maguire claims that he had personally spoken to several JP Morgan futures traders, who alleged the firm manipulates the silver market and makes billions of dollars annually by pushing the market in its favor.



This comes with little surprise to those watching the silver market, as for years on end, the number of shorts in the market has long outpaced the amount of silver that is believed to have ever been mined. This type of naked shorting allows firms like JP Morgan and others to flood the market with silver contracts and drive down the price, allowing profits to be pocketed on derivative-style bets made on other “off the book” markets where no physical metals are traded.



In addition, firms engaged in this activity can make a fortune in stocks, selling off shares of miners as the price of silver dips.

The secret of Gold - Gold as an investment

Gold as an investment

(from Wikipedia the free encyclopedia)

Of all the precious metals, gold is the most popular as an investment. Investors generally buy gold as a hedge or safe haven against any economic, political, social or currency-based crises. These crises include investment market declines, burgeoning national debt, currency failure, inflation, war and social unrest. Investors also buy gold early in a bull market and aim to sell it before a bear market begins, in an attempt to gain financially.

Gold has been used throughout history as a form of payment and has been a relative standard for currency equivalents specific to economic regions or countries. Many European countries implemented gold standards in the later part of the 19th century until these were dismantled in the financial crises involving World War I. After World War II, the Bretton Woods system pegged the United States dollar to gold at a rate of US$35 per troy ounce. The system existed until the 1971 Nixon Shock, when the US unilaterally suspended the direct convertibility of the United States dollar to gold.

Since 1919 the most common benchmark for the price of gold has been the London gold fixing, a twice-daily telephone meeting of representatives from five bullion-trading firms of the London bullion market. Furthermore, gold is traded continuously throughout the world based on the intra-day spot price, derived from over-the-counter gold-trading markets around the world. The following table sets forth the gold price versus various assets and key statistics
